Multicenter data banking in management of dizzy patients: first results from the DizzyNet registry project.
Article in Journal of neurology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeComprehensive phenotypical data across countries is needed to understand the determinants, prognosis and consequences of vestibular disease. The registry is a data repository for the members of the European DizzyNet. We report results from a pilot study using data from Turkey and Germany.
methodsThe pilot study included a convenience sample of patients aged 18 or above referred to Ege University Medical School Hospital, Dokuz Eylül University Hospital, Izmir, Turkey, and the German Center for German Center for Vertigo and Balance Disorders, University on Munich, Germany, with symptoms of vertigo or dizziness. Health-related quality of life was assessed with the EQ5-D and the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI). To obtain comparable groups we matched data from the two countries for age, sex and diagnosis by propensity score.
resultsWe included 80 adult patients, 40 from each country (60% female, mean age 54.1, SD 12.4). Matching was successful. Vestibular migraine (34%) was the most frequent diagnosis, followed by benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (29%) and Menière's disease (12%). Clinical signs and symptoms were comparable in both countries. Patients from Turkey were more likely to report headaches (65 vs. 32%) and to show gait unsteadiness (51 vs. 5%). Patients from Germany reported significantly higher quality of life and lower values of the DHI score.
conclusionsSharing data facilitates research, enhances translation from basic science into clinical applications, and increases transparency. The DizzyNet registry is a first step to data sharing in vestibular research across Europe.
